Some twat called Dale Houghton has been identified, charged and convicted (awaiting sentencing) of a “public order” offence after he “mocked the death of football mascot Bradley Lowery” at a match between Sheffield Wednesday and Sunderland on Friday, October 29th.
Where do you start?
I’m not condoning mocking the death of a young boy. Houghton’s actions were crass, insensitive and offensive. But is that really a public order offence worthy of jail time? I get that it would have been upsetting for the family, but it’s not like this kid just died. It happened in 2017. A relatively small number of people directly involved would have been upset and offended. Fair enough. Is that justifiable grounds to send someone to prison though? Is this not just another example of “hurty words” and cancel culture?
If this oik can be identified, found, charged and convicted in 3 days, it shows plod can actually do something useful in double quick time. How do they then explain why it takes them never to find proper violent career criminal thugs and bang them up?
If offensive chanting at football grounds results in charges and convictions, why isn’t the red half of Scouserpool in jail for mocking the Munich air disaster? Why isn’t the red half of Manchester in jail for mocking the Hillsborough tragedy? Why aren’t thousands of Chelski fans in jail for making ‘hissing’ sounds at Tottenham Hotspur’s ground in reference to the gas chambers which murdered untold numbers of Jewish people? (The Tottenham area has a large Jewish population)
Maybe the authorities have been super quick to clamp down on this because it involves a young kid (Bradley Lowery was 6 years old when he died). OK, then. A few weeks ago Chester fans were chanting about Lucy Letby at a game versus Hereford where the baby killer is from. There was some “outrage” and “shock” in the very scant reporting of this, but where was the 3 day turnaround in identifying, finding, charging and prosecuting those involved taunting about someone who had killed babies? Hmmm.

Yes it is an abhorrent thing to do and those that did it are total cunts. Criminal?
Not really probably a good smacking by own fans should be sufficient.
The thing is there are way more criminal activities taking place in Britain 🇬🇧 that are just ignored

Completely agree with this nom.
The moron who chanted such offensiveness is a cunt who deserves a kicking, but it should not be a matter for the police or courts. This case is, however, the inevitable consequence of legislating to prevent people being offended. A nation full of wet babies crying for their nanny (the state). Time and money wasted while terrywrists, murderers and rapists pursue their interests unhindered.
Good afternoon, everyone.

PS My current favourite (possibly now illegal) footie chant is ‘Chelsea Rent Boy’ . Closely followed by ‘In your Liverpool slums.’ What’s yours?

United fans chant to the City shite in the 50s. “Ten bums and a Jerry ( pot )” Burt Trautmann the goalie.

Ole’s at the Wheel, sung with passion by all and sundry with MU at home and on their way to another pasting, will always make me smile. No, laugh out loud.

No, I can’t agree with this nom.
Making fun of a child’s death from cancer is beneath contempt.
He won’t necessarily be sent to chokey anyway, that’s for the judge to decide next month. But frankly a short spell inside and emerging with a red hot anus is what this stupid cunt deserves.
22
Munich and Hillsborough, were accidents that could’ve been avoided. The Holocaust was out right murder.
Make your minds up who are guilty. But Chelsea fan should take note.
13
Sickening behaviour by these twats.
But amazing how quickly footy fans are arrested and convicted. Is it because they are virtually guaranteed a successful outcome, or is it because the plod / courts are politically motivated to not go after eco loons and elite molesters…
21
Football has been awash with disgusting chants for all of my life
Gassssss @ spurs
Munich @ scum utd
Your going to get your fucking head kicked in by all and sundry
Ten past nine is stabbing time mainly by bin dippers particularly Everton.

You’ll never walk again
I rather be a P aki than …chose your team

Die die die etc to the Mary Hopkins tune towards any opposing team player that was injured.
Your going home in a fucking ambulance
All wrong but not criminal .

The Facebook poster who posted a video of the Grenfell effigy was also charged under Public Order Offences, but plod took their time coming up with the charge as it was dubious as to whether it was in the public domain, and the response was driven by social media outrage and labour politicians.
The defendant was cleared after going to court.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-49836760
Same thing happened during lockdown. police arresting people of dubious charges for violating guidelines, and the cases being thrown out.
Anyway…
‘Sign on, sign on,
with a pen, in your hand,
’cause you’ll nev-er find, a job.
You’ll ne-ver, find a job’.
Send the plod. I’ll fucking laugh at them all the way to the station and through the interview. They’re all social workers LARPing as paramilitary goon.
Black uniforms, caps, arresting people for saying the wrong things… all looks a bit familiar, especially the larger forces like the Met, West Midlands and GMP.
The state of the cunts, and cunts of the state.

Rogers & Hammerstein could certainly have learned from these classics of modernity as quoted by all on this hallowed site.

I wish I could start a chant about Howard Webb, his shitty VAR, and what a massive cunt he is. It would include his being a useless, blubby failure and how he should have been sacked last Saturday. “Human error” Psh. My chant would end by saying it’s obvious to anyone that there’s match-fixing happening and that the corruotion is now being paraded in front of the fans. . Not catchy, but correct.
10
Mark Halsey said as much back in 2016. And if anything things have gotten worse.
2
The PGMOL should schedule a regular press conference after each round of matches so Webb can make his weekly apology for VARs fucking things up.
It’ll just save time.

He’s bald, he’s red, he sleeps in Fergie’s bed, Howard Webb.

🎶 Posh Spice –
Takes it up the arse
Posh Spice –
Takes it up the arse 🎶
Sang to the tune of ‘Go West’ (traditionally sang by those who take it up the arse as it happens)
4
There was also;
‘Does she take it
Does she take it
Does she take it up the arse?
Does she ta-ke it
Up the arse?’
The idiotic skellington cunt tried to get Peterborough United to stop using the name Posh or The Posh.
Ignorant conceited hag.
Any abuse directed her way is warranted.

A certain Ipswich fan will be very offended reading that

I’d never say anything offensive so I can’t possibly comment.
Please refer to my legal team with any questions.

I recall seeing the Reds play Arsenal in the late 80s. Grobbelar was injured so they played this rookie called Hooper in goal. Behind him, thousands of Gooners chanted, “Hooper, Hooper, How’s yer Mum, how’s yer Mum, how’s yer Mum?” She’d committed suicide the week before.
Different days.
4
I was behind the goal at Spurs when Grobbelaar played for Southampton one time. It was around that time when he was implicated in match fixing or some kind of corruption.
We all sang (to the tune of My Old Man’s a Dustman):
Grobbelaar is dodgy
He wears a dodgy hat
And when he saw that fifty grand
He said I’m having that
He heard us alright. He turned, laughed and gave us a little applause for basically giving him shit. Fair play to him. Different times.
12
I remember coins raining down on Grobbelaar from the Stretford End. He put two up to his eyes and turned to us with arms outstretched. The United could only laugh and applaud him.

And United goalie Gary Bailey. The Stretford End chanting ‘Gary, Gary. Give us a song!’
Then Gaz turned round, got on one knee, and belted out an Al Johnson number. The lad was a star.
4
And little Paul Parker.
He got the ‘Trigger Trigger Trigger. Shoot that n!gg*r’ chant.
Parker faced the crowd and acted like he was blowing his brains out.

I remember the Forest striker from several years ago called Jason Lee who sported a rather unusual haircut:
https://alchetron.com/cdn/jason-lee-footballer-209bdd8a-a720-4643-a6ff-f63e0a991ae-resize-750.jpg
All the opposition supporters would constantly sing, “He’s got a pineapple, on his head”. His form plummeted and ultimately led to some mental elf issues (if I recall correctly). You’d be in the dock answering hate crime charges for doing that now.
5
Ex-Arsenal and Spurs striker Emmanuel Adebayor.
“Adebayorrrrrr…………Adebayorrrrrrrrrrr……..his dad washes elephants and his mothers a whore”.
I loved the ‘There’s only two Andy Goram’s’ chant after he was diagnosed with mild schizophrenia.
Very witty.
11
That was a great chant, LL. My favourite chant from my White Hart Lane days was:
There’s only one Arsene Wenger
There’s only one Arsene Wenger
With a packet of sweets and a cheeky smile
Wenger is a fucking ‘peter file’
I was literally crying with laughter the first time I heard 30 thousand fans singing that.
There’s been some great banter between the two sets of fans over the years. I recall one game where the Spurs fans struck up the chant, “Nayim from the half way line” as a reference to former Spurs player Nayim chipping that cunt David Seaman from 50 odd yards to win the Cup Winner’s Cup Final in 1995 in the 120th minute. Clip below:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdgTuLB1q-M
Back to the game at White Hart Lane. After a while, that cunt Dennis Bergkamp scored for Arsenal from close range to make it 0-1. The Arse fans then struck up, “Bergkamp from the 6 yard line”. Great comeback for which there was no answer. Boooo. 🙂
5
Bergkamp was a Rolls Royce of a footballer. Unique. Still haven’t seen a player with a better first touch.
With the computer geeks running football now it means every cunt is a robot and players like DB won’t be seem again.
This video is fucking ace. It did have millions of views originally and was taken down I think, but reuploaded.
What a player.
https://youtu.be/Xh5mj1ffuo8?si=yBIoe3lC3wavsYNv

Denis Bergkamp. Named after the King, the great Denis Law (true).
Best first touch players I ever saw in person were Arnold Muhren, Eric Cantona and Dimitar Berbatov. Immaculate, all three of them.

And Frankie Worthington, of course.

I remember that, at the height of it Forest came to Selhurst Park.
I seem to remember that he had commented about in a paper.
Palace fans were real piss takers when iuse to go in the eighties and nineties.
Needless to say he got it with both barrells.

Sorry, the reply was for Jason Lee and his pineapple

Not so David Baddiel, who blacked himself up with a pineapple on his head for Fantasy Football League.
He has since apologised for the sake of his tv career.
How very thoughtful of him.

That’s absolutely true, FMC. I remember that happening too.

Was at a Luton home game many years ago. Luton traditionally hate Watford by the way, but weren’t playing them on the day in question.
One loud mouth shouted, “What do you think of Watford?”. Everyone else replies, “Shit!”. He then follows that up with, “What do you think of shit?”. Everyone replies, “Watford!”. Fairly harmless stuff. A jobsworth steward rocks up and gives the guy some grief and basically told him to cut out the bad language. AT A FOOTBALL GAME!!!
Bloke responds by yelling, “What do you think of toilet?” Crowd replies, “Watford!”. Followed by, “What do you think of Watford?”. Yep, you guess it, the reply was “Toilet”.
Unbelievably the steward had another go at this bloke, so the whole section started chanting, “That steward is up his cunt”. The steward disappeared after that. LOL.
13
I’m not sure where I am on this one as far as the involvement of the law is concerned.
The vile little wanker deserves some kind of retribution, but I can’t think of anything legal.
Perhaps his name and fizzog being plastered all over the papers and social media will be enough to ensure a kicking that old bill will turn a blind eye to.
In fact, if a black person beats the living bejaysus out of him, old bill will certainly do just that.
Problem solved.

Remember, during the reign of the Yorkshire Ripper, those dumb coppers were convinced the Mackem cunt on that tape was the real deal…….”Ooooh George, I see you have had no luck catching me.” They played it at every ground asking if anyone recognised the voice. It was always met with “12-0, 12-0”…… 😁🔨🗡
6
Plod are the arbiters of what is and isn’t acceptable, sadly they seem to fall short when it comes to real crime.
Is the old favourite still allowed ‘you’re a bastard, you’re a bastard, you’re a bastard referee’, or a more up to date version would end with V A R 😂
3
Here’s an oldie but goldie……”Harry Roberts is our friend, is our friend, is our friend. Harry Roberts is our friend…..he kills coppers.”
Roberts shot and killed three coppers back in the days before Londonstabistan became a third world city. Cunt did 48 years bird and he’s still alive!
I must remember to put him in my dead pool the next time some snide bastard nicks one of my regulars.
7
You wanna hear some of the chants at the women’s football..
What am I saying you need a crowd for that..
Was there any pokies at the aston villa game with their sweaty, clingy shirts?
Again what am i saying no-one was watching..
5
Brighton is always good for a bit of offensive chanting.
“Do you take it up the arse?”
“Does your boyfriend know you’re here?”
My mate got nicked for that last one. Kept him banged up for hours then released him without charge. Fucking Stasi cunts.
7
Will fans be able to chant, “blackiss my arse” month is here again ?
1
This cunt will likely get off with a suspended sentence or communidee sentence order.
If not I’ll dig up what’s left of my grandmother’s rotting carcass and have it for dinner.
3
Here’s an oldie but goldie:
Oh I do like to be beside the seaside,
Oh I do like to be beside the sea,
Oh I do like to walk along the prom, prom, prom,
Where the brass band plays,
F@@K OFF WEST BROM.
My mate got arrested at the Hawthorns for that, and we had to wait until about 10pm before he was released without charge some 6 hours later after he was dragged out.
4
When that cunt Mohammed Al Fayed had that other cunt Michael Jackson as his guest for the Fulham vs Manchester United game at Craven Cottage.
Should have seen Jackson’s face when we unleashed a bit of Pink Floyd on him.
‘Hey! Jacko! Leave them kids alone!”‘
7
Imagine being s Fulham fan and having to walk past a statue of that kid-fucker for a few years. It was bad enough having an arms-dealer as your owner. What would Jimmy Hill have thought?

The passing of our old foe, Francis Lee Lee got me thinking about all the Derby Game classics.
If I die in the Kippax Street, woah-oh woah-oh,
If I die in the Kippax Street, woah-oh woah-oh,
If I die in the Kippax Street, there’ll be ten blue bastards at my feet.
Tip toe through the Kippax, with a pickaxe and a sawn off shotgun.
Tip toe through the Kippax with me.
My old man, said “be a city fan”,
I said “fuck off, you’re a cunt!”,
“I’d rather shag a bucket with a big hole in it,
Than be a city fan for just one minute”.
With hatchets and hammers,
Stanley knives and spanners,
We’ll show those city bastards how to fight,
“I’d rather shag a bucket with a big hole in it,
Than be a city fan!”.
Kick ’em all,
Kick ’em all,
Come on you reds kick ’em all.
If you see any blue shit
Then fucking well boot it,
Come on you reds kick ’em all.
Now? It’s Easter Island Head Maguire trying to tongue John Stones at the final whistle.
4
Wouldn’t be a hoot if some fan at a (BBC, where else?) televised Lionesses game got up and gang ‘Get your tits out for the lads’?
The cunts would have it as headlines for months.
7
Mate of a mate got bunged out of Millwall for calling the lino “a Schofield”
That’s funny, I thought Philip was supposed to be “brave and courageous”?
I would have argued I was congratulating the bloke for his courage in flagging that dodgy offside. Of course it wouldn’t have worked…..we all know there’s a two tier legal system. The coppers will steam in if you’re white and working class but if you’re a poof, an effnick or a posho you get a cup of tea and a pat on the head.
Cunts.
